Craig is back to demo iOS 7.

Tim Cook: This major effort is only possible because of the incredible collaboration between Jony and his amazing design team and Craig and his amazing engineering team."

iClarified 14:19PM:----------------------------The leaks were accurate. The design of iOS is skinny and flat.

iClarified 14:18PM:----------------------------iOS 7 is the biggest change to iOS since the introduction of iPhone. It's packed with amazing new features and a stunning new user interface.

Video time.

The team at Apple has been working incredibly hard on the latest version of iOS. And today it's a great thrill that I announce iOS 7.

This isn't just bad for users but this version fragmentation is terrible for developers. If you do the math you'd find that iOS 6 is the world's most popular mobile operating system and in second place is a version of Android that was released in 2010.

More than a third of Android users are using an operating system that was released in 2010.

"One of the reasons for this is that we provide amazing software updates." "Over 90% of iOS users are using the latest version of iOS"

iPhone was named #1 in customer satisfaction, not just once, but 9 consecutive times.Changewave measured it at 97%.

600 million iOS devices sold.iPhone users use their iPhone 50% more than Android users use their phone.iOS mobile web share is 2.5x Android.iPad web market share is over 4x more than competition.

Demoed all three web apps. Available starting today for developers. Will be expanded to include all users later in the year.

One of the most popular features of iCloud is iTunes in the Cloud. 300 million users of this feature. Redownloaded their content 35 billion times. Game Center has over 240 million users. 60 of the top 100 games on the App Store integrate Game Center support right in their game. iCloud has scale, too. 800 million iMessages or 7.4 trillion push notifications.

MacWorld 14:04PM:----------------------------Coming later this year. Designed in California, assembled here in the U.S. There's a special lunchtime session for developers, and Pixar and The Foundry are going to show demos of Monsters U showing on the new Mac Pro.

ArsTechnica 14:03PM:----------------------------The new Mac Pro has a handle on the top too. spin it around, get access to the I/O. there's audio, four USB3, six Firewire2 driven by 3 Firewire 2 controllers. Gigabit ethernet, HDMI out. there's a motion sensor so when you turn it, it lights up to show you where the I/O is.

The team has packed all this capability in a computer 1/8th the volume of the previous generation Mac Pro.

The entire top of the new device is a handle.

A version of Final Cut Pro is being worked on to support this machine. This delivers 7 teraflops of compute power. It supports 4K displays. You can have up to three 4K displays on the built in graphics.

"We didn't just want to make the same version of the desktop idea that everyone has.""What would be a new form factor and new design for the next 10 years?""The engineers have come up with something truly radical."

MacWorld 13:54PM:----------------------------802.11ac wireless networking, and faster flash memory.Up to 3x performance of 802.11n.But you need an 802.11ac base station. So now entirely new designs of AirPort Extreme that does 802.11ac and there's a Time Capsule as well.

CNET 13:29PM:----------------------------And now we're getting a demo of how fullscreen works. Federighi showing off how the dock now appears in both. He just took iTunes fullscreen, and was able to swap to another screen while the display on the left remained unchanged. Pretty much how all this should have worked in Mountain Lion but didn't.

MacWorld 13:26PM:----------------------------Tags basically look like revamped Labels. You can make up tags on the fly in the Save sheet, just by typing a new tag. Appears in the Finder immediately. Drag things in and assign tags.

ArsTechnica 13:25PM:----------------------------Craig is now going to demo the features he just discussed. Different view settings for each tab, different locations. Now that I have finder tabs, it's a really great way to copy documents.

Verge 13:19PM:----------------------------"We care more that the Mac is number one in customer satisfaction and quality." "We had lots of innovation for the Mac last year. One of those was Mountain Lion.""It's our best-selling release of all time." 35% of users are using Mountain Lion. "We're making the best Macs, but we're not standing still."

The Next Web 13:13PM:----------------------------There's a company launch on stage today from an organization called Anki. They're using artificial intelligence and robotics. Anki was started while the founders were working on their PHDs in robotics. They're now showing a mat with cars driving around a track by themselves.

"The people who work at our stores are passionate about how technology can affect people's lives."

Engadget 13:05PM:----------------------------This is the 24th WWDC. Attendees from more than 60 countries, and 2/3 of the people here are first-timers.

100 sessions, 120 labs and 1,000 Apple engineers for this week.

WWDC is the longest running developer conference? I believe that. Although I think we're long overdue for Apple to break things out.

WE ARE STARTING!

We will be live blogging Apple's WWDC 2013 keynote address here compiling a variety of sources for the best feed possible starting at 10am PST / 1pm EST Monday, June 10th.
